“The process of conversion to Christianity is fraught with many deadly pitfalls. As one makes their way towards Christ, these pitfalls present themselves in a variety of ways, infecting one’s soul and causing it to stumble off the path.”
In a recent commentary, writer Jason Liske reflected on three stumbling blocks that may be experienced by a convert to Christianity. These pitfalls include Triumphalism (becoming so proud of one’s own conversion that he/she begins to aggressively lord it over others), Over-Intellectualization (a state of intellectual pride based on scholarly work – and losing sight of Christ), and Romanticizing the faith (assuming that all members of the Church are saints – becoming disappointed with their human frailties).
